Rocco must have heard his opponent was vying for team lead of getting pinned.

. Averaged a tech for 3 straight duals not bad 
. Averaged a tech for 3 straight duals not bad Him doing that in Philly was hilarious. Met him in person after one of the rounds and struck a wrestling conversation and he was delight.
a little whacky though. Like the Doc from back to the future
These student announcers are unintentionally funny their so bad
Pete, I hope your abacus is okay after this one, I am picturing beads all over your floor.
Thanks for what you do!
Belatedly, re what are we drinking, the answer is primitivo.
Good to see you. Were you on vacation or just no news the past week?150-0 against NW Indiana Maryland
Team reactions are priceless. The guys are really enjoying it. Cael just rolled his eyes.

Q: what's going thru your mind in the 1st period
- just having a short term memory, and just focusing on scoring the next points
Q: 30 points over the final 2 period. Talk to me about once you got in the flow, and did you feel you were in the zone
- yeah, I was in the Flo State, where it didn't matter if I was up by 10 or down by 10, I was going to have fun and feel the moment
Q: seems like you're having fun. Talk about your teammates
- we all have a similar a similar mindset, and keep wanting to get better, in wrestling, or in life
Q: The bench seems so locked in for each match. This is about a close a match as I can remember seeing
- it's hard to put into words, but i'm really happy to part of whatever it is going on, because it's the coolest thing I've ever been a part of
Q: Are there things you're targeting at this point in the season
- each week your opponents give you different things, so I'll go back and look at the film, and see what I have to work on
Q: the quick turnaround
- adversity is part of this sport. It's our friend, our brother, and we just have to look forward to it
Q: The matches coming up
- I'm really looking forward to getting back to practice first, and don't want to get too far ahead of myself
Q: Blaze & Duke
- both of them are gamers, in the very best way. In whatever they do, wrestling, gaming, etc., they are pushing us and getting better

Cael said to not screw around today, we have to get back and beat that snow.
I was going to drink Sagamore Double Oak rye, because it's the best thing from Maryland, but I forgot to pour it. So apparently coffee and a Diet Pepsi is the honest answer.
I had such high hopes for them after the intro, they sounded prepared and competent...then the match started.
Don't get riding point on a tech fall
Is MM 100% Bonus. Announcer kept saying Barr was the only one.
We are working on her attacks. I'll be teaching her the reverse Winn Dixie next.
Big match next Friday in the BJC against Nebraska who wrestles us tough. PJ gets National Champion Taylor which will be fun along with some other big matches.
One of the funniest shows of my youth was The Carol Burnett Show. Without any comedic training, today’s Terrapin announcers got real close.
Teams like Maryland, Indiana, Northwestern, Purdue and Michigan State either need to eliminate their programs, invest more in those programs or face relegation to say the MAC. Doesn't do PSU any good or the other top Big Ten programs any good to wrestle these crap teams.
I mean, we want these programs to remain. But yeah - there’s no reason for these programs not to be good. Especially MD.
I dunno. Feels like it does Iowa some good. At least as a confidence booster in these dark times.
The ref (Brian Murphy) is the son of Harry Murphy who was a very successful coach at Cambria Heights in the late 80s and early 90s. Great family.
Casey must be teaching them the Vulcan Nerve Pinch
What did you do in 1953 between sessions when Penn State wrestling won the Natty?
I think I am going to try and give myself an aural enema by listening Jeff Byer's call now
Was lying dormant inside my dad, still 5 years from tormenting the world.
